Experience

The first programme of TVP Poznań was broadcast on May 1, 1957. At that time, it could be viewed on just 100 receivers registered in the city. Initially, the station broadcast three times a week. All cultural, sports, news, feature and popular science programmes were created on the spot. However, those intended for the nationwide audience, due to lack of connections, were broadcast for the first two years from Łódź. Filmmakers, performers and all technical facilities were transported there by bus.

In 1959, the first, makeshift radio connection began operating, allowing to include the station in the nationwide television stations network and receive programmes from abroad. In 1966, TVP Poznań gained the ability to produce the programmes outside the studio. It was related to the fact that the first experimental broadcast van made in Poland came into use. In the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's, using the knowledge and experience of professionals working in the station, TVP Poznań produced programmes known throughout the country. The viewers particularly remembered cultural, entertainment and popular science broadcasts as well as theatrical productions. The 1970's marked three milestones for Poznań Television. In 1973, programmes began to be recorded on magnetic tape, the first sound camera was used at the station in 1977, and two years later the programmes began to be broadcast in colour.

In 1984, the station introduced the first U-matic camera. Thus, television departed from news production in film technology. In 1989, TVP Poznań switched to Betacam system. On January 1, 1994 Polish public television (TVP S.A.) was established, being now parent company of the Poznań branch. Half a year later, from the new headquarters specifically adapted to the needs of the television, TVP Poznań launched a day-long regional programme - PTV3. The 1990's saw the modernization of production technology. TVP Poznań introduced digital editing, purchased satellite and microwave van, and it extended the transmission range.

In 2003, TVP Poznań moved to its own headquarters, built from the ground up, at Serafitek street. In 2006, the first digital reporter cameras were used recording in blue laser technology in Sony's XDCAM system. Since 2009, TVP Poznań also produces programmes in HD technology.
